5 Things I Personally Do To Grow My Network Marketing Business!

1. Make a decision to become a Network Marketing professional

“Professional” defined: “(of a person) engaged in a specified activity as one’s main paid occupation rather than as a pastime.”

What exactly does this mean? This means that it becomes your life and not a spare time gig.

Walk and talk your business on a daily basis. Become the professional that this industry calls for.

2. Get committed to the process of building your Network Marketing business

Prospect, Invite, Present, and Follow-up

These are the simple fundamentals that one has to execute on a daily basis.

Don’t get too hung up on the “ups and downs” in this profession; and don’t get attached to the outcome of the process. Many will say “NO” to your opportunity and some will say “Yes” and even then, some of those who agreed to come on board will eventually quit.

The emotional swings WILL come. It’s not a matter of “If” but, “when”.

3. Be consistent

There’s nothing worse than hitting and missing in any kind of activity. So why would anyone conduct their Network Marketing business in the same fashion. Be consistent in executing the fundamentals. Be reliable when people look to you for advice or are reading or watching your content. Understand this, people ARE watching and observing you whether you fully realize it or not. So try your dead level best to always be consistent.

Remember, people follow strength, not weakness. And the only way you’ll maintain that strength mindset is by exposing yourself to growth producing material on a daily basis. The internet is chock-full of resources that you can watch (Youtube), read (blogs), and study in regards to Network Marketing.

5. Allow people to FEEL your energy

When talking to someone about your business or opportunity does the other person feel your confidence, passion, and excitement. Remember, people can sense your confidence or the lack thereof when you’re trying to convey your message. People can sense immediately whether your a “shaker and mover” or someone who is uncertain about what they’re doing. Develop a powerful sense of energy about you when it comes to your Network Marketing business and see your team grow.

Can One Truly Be Motivated To Succeed?

The question is often asked, “Can I really motivate people in my group or business to succeed?”.

The true question that should be asked is: “Can I motivate people in life in general?”.

Unfortunately, the answer is, “No!”. You can’t.

A person can be inspired, but to be motivated is a totally different story.

The truth of the matter is, a person can expose himself to all the personal development material in the world and to every “guru” in the world, but if the motivation doesn’t originate from within, their activity will be short lived.

For any piece of information to be impactive, it first needs to be moved upon.

But that won’t ever be realized until one is motivated enough to move into the execution phase.

Until then, they’re just mere words.

Every person has to search for their “own” motivation. Their “why?” so to speak.

We all have our reason(s) for doing certain things, and that’s where one is going to have to dig deep to find out for themselves.

To do something just for the sake of doing it cannot be compared to doing something because of a deeper reason or motive.

To ever flourish in any endeavor, the person seeking must first really want it for themselves.

Pep rallies, Conventions, and rah-rah sessions can only do so much until it runs out.

Then what?

The most powerful skillset a person can every have is self-motivation:

Being eager to get up in the morning and dreading having to go to bed too early because the drive/motivation you have in you is so strong that it needs to be expressed in video, text, or in whatever form you’ve chosen.

Self-motivation is evident when you can perform on a large scale, and it doesn’t matter if anyone else believes in you, it matters not if they recognize you, and it doesn’t even matter if they aren’t supportive.

All that matters is that you have this powerful and personal inner drive that propels you to constantly stretch yourself and to always be moving forward in your business or life in general.

This One Skill Set WILL Explode Your Network Marketing Business!

The Importance of Posture in the Industry of Network Marketing

What exactly is postureand why is it important in our profession of Network Marketing?

First, let’s define the word “posture”.

Definition: “To assume a certain attitude or behave in a certain way, especially to make an impression or gain an advantage.”

The words I’d like to focus on in this definition are: assume, attitude, behave, impression, advantage.

In summary: Attitude and behavior is a mindset; impression and advantage are the results of the mindset.

So, in breaking down this simple definition, what does it mean for the Network Marketer.

My definition: “To take upon oneself (assume) a certain kind of mindset (of power/authority) that conveys strength or superiority.”

Your Primary Responsibility in Network Marketing

Your job as a Network marketing professional is not to go out and convince everyone you see about your opportunity. Your only responsibility is to expose as many people to your opportunity as quickly as possible so that you can move on to the next person. Do not, I repeat, DO Not! try to convince, cajole, persuade, coerce anyone into joining your business (Always operate from a position of power and strength). Remember, you possess that opportunity that has already changed the financial situation of hundreds before you.

Remember…………

“A person convinced against their will is of the same opinion still.”

You’re not prospecting to get everyone into your opportunity. Besides, if you have to persuade someone to join you in business, chances are, you’ll have to persuade them to roll-up their sleeves and actually get to work. This is Net-WORK marketing. It takes lots of work and tenacity to build this business. You DON’T want average people who are not willing to work. You want movers, shakers, people who are not afraid to open new markets. People who say, “come on, let’s go and get it done! Let’s build this thing big!”.

So, as you go out into the market place, know this, you have in your possession a gift that has the potential to make a dramatic change in a person’s financial situation should they decide to run with you.

Posture up and don’t pay any mind to the ridicules, because they will come. They’ll attack you from every angle that you can think of: friends, family members, co-workers, people in general who have no idea what they’re talking about will seem to appear from nowhere.

So, remember, posture is everything.

Start developing and strengthening your mindset to get that POSTURE.

Read! Study! Learn!

Then apply those things.

Your business will flourish IF you have the intestinal fortitude to go on.

The Importance Of Personal Development

The practice of personal development in the ever challenging life of a Network Marketing professional is very key if success is ever to be achieved.

As a matter of fact, its been said that “the profession of Network Marketing is personal growth disguised as a business.”

Our profession is the only activity that puts the mind into a yo-yo effect in that emotions are forever changing. From excitement to discouragement. From victory to seemingly defeat. The mind in this profession is forever being tempered and tested.

If a person’s mind isn’t daily exposed to positive material, the hopes of ever achieving personal goals in this industry will not come to fruition.

Why?…………

Because the human mind is designed to be afraid or fearful. It’s a means of protecting itself from danger. But all too often, I’m afraid to say that, most of our fears are often self-imposed, unrealistic, and given to us by our perception of what is.

There have been many people having lofty dreams for their family who have fallen by the way side because they have failed in the endeavor of developing their minds.

Developing Ones Mind Is Of Utmost Importance

There is a particular learning curve that comes with being involved in this amazing industry of Network Marketing.

For instance, learning to have the proper mindset when rejection is thrown at you can only be defeated if the mind has already been trained or conditioned for it. There are and will be many situations in which those who have no idea of how this industry works will come face to face with. This is where personal development steps in.

Furthermore, there WILL be days when making a call, prospecting, and following up just won’t be on the agenda. Because the mind just won’t be right where it needs to be. That’s why personal development is so crucially necessary.

How Do We Strengthen Our Minds?

For some, listening to audios/CD’s can be a means of development.

For some, listening to music.

And for others, reading a good book pertaining to our industry is what does the trick.

It really doesn’t matter how one goes about in training their mind. It’s about exposing and feeding your mind on a DAILY basis.

Below is a book that I personally have in my library and I highly recommend it for the aspiring entrepreneur.

(If interested in purchasing the book, simply click on the image).

Authored by Napoleon Hill.

In it you’ll find many points that will prove very helpful in your personal endeavors.

Some points such as: (examples)

Power – what it is and how to create and use it.

Imagination – how to stimulate it……..

How to Analyze yourself.

The Master Mind

And many more…………..

(I don’t necessarily agree with everything that is taught in this book, but for the most part it’s an excellent piece of work)

Network Marketing | Video Marketing

If you haven’t started implementing video marketing because of fear, it’s time to get over that because the future is here. According to studies, 64% of marketers will be relying heavily on video marketing in the near future to dominate their particular space. And quite frankly, I can see why that is. 90% of consumers would rather watch a video than read content through text.

The future is here. Content marketing through video is where it’s at. Every month YouTube caters to more than one billion viewers. Obviously, video has a broader reach than any other type of medium. It only makes sense that, every marketer should be utilizing this avenue to capture a part of that large market.

In an age of information overload, it’s important to offer content that can easily be digested by consumers; besides the fact that videos are naturally engaging.

The Enemy of Video Creation……….FEAR.

Attention marketer……….it’s time for you to step out of your comfort or fear zone and begin to think seriously about creating content through video marketing. I’m quite aware that this can be a very daunting experience for some, but if you are to have a piece of the “pie” you’re going to have to get over your fear quickly.

There is always going to be a learning curve in any new undertaking. Begin now to develop the necessary skillset in video marketing so that you can take your business to an entirely different and higher level.

Network Marketing | The Importance of Posture

The Necessity of Posture in Network Marketing

Most Network Marketing Neophytes come into network marketing with the idea of setting the world on fire, which in a sense is an amazing goal. However, reality is, if one has never been in our particular industry of Direct Sales, it’s going to be difficult for one to attain such feat if he has not learned a certain skillset(s).

As in every new undertaking, including Multi-level Marketing, there will always be a necessary learning curve. Marketing skillsets will need to be developed if one is to be successful.

One of the essential skillset needed is POSTURE.

Posture in Network Marketing and How To Get It

If you have not yet acquired the skillset of POSTURE, here are some tips on how to get it:

Follow a particular leader in the industry whom you would like to imitate (Remember: Success leaves clues).

Begin to read and study personal development materials in the area of leadership and be urgent about implementing the concepts you learn.

Surround yourself with people who have the same mindset of building an MLM business.

Continually watch the success stories (many of them on Youtube) of those in your particular company

P.S. ~ The Network Marketing industry works, IF you work it. I wish you the best in your adventure. Be consistent in the basics, and I promise you’ll get to where you want to be in the amazing world of Network Marketing.

The Promise Of Our Industry

Remember, the system and modality of Network Marketing is effective, IF you are willing to “roll up your sleeves” and get to work.

If there are successful people in your particular opportunity, then there should be no question as to why you can’t be successful as well.

Our industry is not a “get rich scheme”, contrary to what naysayers often spout.

It is not an overnight gig where you get in and find yourself wealthy the next day.

It actually takes WORK, and LOTS of it.

However, if you are willing to “stick to your guns”, and commit long-term, and put in the necessary work as if you’re building an actual business, because you are, you’ll eventually get to where you want to be.

So, in conclusion, are you going to work your PRIMARY business like there’s no tomorrow, OR, are you going to continue to jump from one opportunity to the next, and the next, yada, yada, yada. I believe you get what I’m getting at.

The Decision To Make A Change!

Everyone has the ability to do more and be more than what they are currently experiencing.

The question is: Will you step up to life’s plate and take serious responsibility for your lack of action or performance?

Just decide this very minute that you will make a CHANGE.

I don’t really care where you are chronologically in your life, because that should never be the issue.

The truth of the matter is if you’re still breathing and depending on natural oxygen, you can make a CHANGE.

If you’re Ill, and taken with some kind of health challenge, you can still make a change and decide to be victorious, even in your sickness.

The ONLY person barricading your way to an amazing, victorious, and powerful life is YOU.

It just takes ONE heart-felt, one powerful affirmation of, “I WILL MAKE A CHANGE”, decision that can send your life into an AMAZING tail-spin of growth and absolute freedom, not only in mind, but in every aspect of your life.
